20 Creative DIY Christmas Lanterns

In this post: 20 Gorgeous DIY Christmas Lanterns
Christmas is a favorite holiday for many of us and decorating for the season is definitely a pleasant way to get into the Christmas spirit.

Lanterns are amazing decor pieces and I have to admit that I love the festive vibe they can give to any home.  Here are some of my favorite DIY Christmas lanterns that are perfect for this holiday season. These projects are incredibly creative and use various materials from Mason jars and paper to adhesive vinyl and tree trimmings!

I bought an inexpensive set of these Wine Bottle Light Cork LED Light Strings and collected bottles all year to use them in.

Which one’s your favorite and have you ever made a Christmas lantern?
